Summary: | A polymer-based material having covalently bonded enzymatically degradable peptide sequences not degradable by the biological and metabolic activity of cells and tissues is disclosed, wherein the peptide sequences are incorporated into the polymer-based material or conjugated to the polymer-based material. The peptide sequence can be part of the three-dimensional or two-dimensional structure of the polymer-based material. A controlled degradation of a covalent bond in the peptide sequence is effected. Use of such polymer-based material for an in vitro production of cell cultures or tissues or organs, for an in vivo stabilization of donated cells, tissues or organs is also disclosed. An adhesive bond between the material and the sample, i.e. cells, tissues, or organs is controlledly degradable without destroying the integrity of the sample. |
